AB  - Work in Progress: Global Business Management Education to Industry Professionals: A Decade of Experiences from a Professional Graduate Program

This paper outlines more than 10 years of experiences in designing, teaching, planning, and executing global distribution management class & study aboard trip for working professionals across the globe. This work in progress paper outlines the immersive learning experiences such as (1) applied content (2) live case studies with companies in a foreign location (3) one-week trip to a foreign location (4) executive panel discussions (5) industry experiences through videos, interviews and podcasts. 

The Global Distribution course features “real-time” case studies in which multiple distributors and their suppliers provide a problem environment for students to work on supply chain solutions. This second year course examines global competitive issues in sourcing, operations, and sales. Global networks of facilities, human resources, inventories, and supplier relationships are examined together with legal issues and logistics. Past projects have carried our students and faculty to places like China, France, Germany, Italy, Brazil, Portugal, Norway, Sweden, India, Singapore, Poland, Argentina and Germany. Each year, new case studies are prepared for a new location with new problem environments to reflect the changing challenges facing global distribution. 

The global distribution class is part of the 21-Month, web-based Master of Industrial Distribution (MID) program focused on professionals in the industrial distribution, industrial sales, supply chain and logistics areas. The courses provide these professionals the critical skills and knowledge necessary to be successful and gain a competitive advantage for them and their company through the immediate application of knowledge and research directly into teaching.
